“Wheels of Hope” changing lives of people with motor disabilities

• It is based on the song “Ruedas de Esperanza,” (Wheels of Hope) which was specifically composed for this unique musical crowdfunding campaign, where we honor those who continuously advance beyond the challenges of motor disabilities.

• We want to collect funds to finance a massive delivery of wheelchairs and other programs supporting people with disabilities through the Wheels of Happiness Foundation. The Wheels of Happiness foundation helps underprivileged people with motor disabilities to have a productive, fulfilling life.

• This year, we wanted to make a big difference by launching this musical financing campaign. We believe that when art, music, and the goodwill of hundreds of generous hearts join, we can collect more and obtain more wheelchairs in this first part of our "A Million Wheels" program.

• As we achieve our financial goals, after donating the intended number of wheelchairs, we will be able to improve our clinic and our wheelchair repair shop, which are critical components of the support we provide to this population.

We believe in the power of the goodwill of a significant number of people united for a worthy cause.

In this campaign, we unite the talent of Venezuelan and Spanish artists to create a musical production that will generate awareness of the need of individuals with motor disabilities. We want to impart a message of inclusion, admiration, and respect to those heroes on wheels that rise beyond the physical and social barriers.

Know the route of the campaign:

Wheels of Happiness is a registered 501(c)(3) organization created in 2011 by Vincenzo Piscopo after suffering a life altering spinal cord injury. While hospitalized, he met Father Thomas, a priest from Uganda, who had suffered a similar injury but did not receive proper post-injury care to reintegrate to society. Father Thomas raised Vincenzo’s awareness of the needs of people with disabilities in under-privileged areas of the world. Thanks to the support Vincenzo received, he has been able to live a productive, fulfilling life. As a way to pay it forward, Vincenzo and his wife Gabriela, founded “The Wheels of Happiness Foundation”.

Wheels of Happiness’s mission is to support spinal cord injury survivors and people with motor disabilities in disadvantaged communities around the world, including the USA. WOH delivers mobility equipment and medical supplies; provides scholarships; funds required surgeries and offers psychological support so our beneficiaries can become independent, reintegrate to society, and add value to their communities.

• Last year, our Wheels Of Happiness foundation donated more than 300 technical aids including: wheelchairs, canes, walkers, orthopedic cars. We attended, completely free of charge, more than 200 patients with motor disabilities in our dispensary clinic in Valencia, Venezuela.

• Help us support underprivileged people with motor disabilities and/or spinal cord injury, so that they get a wheelchair adapted to their needs and receive comprehensive support (medical assistance, psychological and personal improvement resources).

By being a patron of this cause, you will receive a series of rewards. Also, if you make a contribution within the first 24 hours, in addition to the rewards you will receive from Verkami, you will earn the following SPECIAL BONUSES:

• 1) You will receive in your email an exclusive illustration in high resolution so that you can print it, creation of the cartoonist Marcelino Juárez @marce (recognized Venezuelan artist on wheels).
• 2) We will also exclusively send you a downloadable high-fidelity WAW file with the theme song “Wheels of Hope”

Additionally, if your donation during the campaign is equal to or greater than 250 euros, we will send you a beautiful, full-color, large-format digital artwork that you can print; made especially for our campaign by the artist Marcelino Juárez (@marce)
